Five Year Completion of One Rank One Pension

 The Union government has dispensed more than Rs. 42,700 crore to 20.6 lakh resigned defence personnel through the One Rank One Pension (OROP) scheme, which was told 5 years prior in 2015. 


Highlights: 
♦ OROP infers the payment of the uniform benefits to military officials for a similar position for a similar length of administration, independent of the date of retirement. 
♦ OROP suggests overcoming any issues between the rate of pension of current and past retirees at intermittent spans.
♦ Prior to OROP, ex-servicemen used to get benefits according to the Pay Commission's suggestions of when they had resigned. 
♦ Uttar Pradesh and Punjab have the most noteworthy number of OROP recipients. Military Personnel who had resigned till June 30, 2014, are covered under it. 
♦ The execution of the plan depended on the proposal of the Koshiyari board, a 10 part all-party parliamentary board framed under the chairmanship of Bhagat Singh Koshiyari. 
♦ The choice to actualize OROP was given by a request in November 2015, with the advantage compelling from July 2014 itself. This had been a long-standing interest of ex-servicemen in the nation.
♦ Military Personnel resigned up to 30.06.2014 were covered under this Order. OROP implies that each trooper who resigns in a similar position gets a similar pension, independent of his date of retirement.
